Seeing Your Mind Come to Life / If You’re a Theater Kid… (Part 2)

Read If You’re a Theater Kid… (Part 1) here. For me, art tends to be very personal. It comes from within the artist and is put on display for others to see, whether it is an idea you’ve had, an experience, a conversation, a picture. In Bard College Berlin’s Poetry and Poetics course, we recently

If You’re a Theater Kid… (Part 1)

There are a lot of different things that people define themselves by or others define them by, regardless of whether they are right or wrong (of course it is a question, if it’s even possible to have a “right” or “wrong” definition of a person). But despite stereotypes or characterizations of people, one thing that

The Days We Spent in Each Other’s Company

Lily didn’t breathe much anymore. I tried bringing a few hearts to class once, maybe to make her feel better, but it didn’t work very well; it was just messy. I painted her many times in her frozen mind but I couldn’t get the tongue to move quite right or the shadows in the cleft

The Beautiful Things in the Snow

My first winter in the snow at Bard College. Two red berries had been smashed beneath each footstep that led up to the window.

The Aquatic Warbler and the conservation of Germany’s species

While its name sounds like a creature Luna Lovegood might have made up, this small bird is in fact real, and in need of our help. To date, the Aquatic Warbler is the rarest migratory songbird in Europe and may be the first species to become extinct since the 1900s in Germany. Throughout Europe, the

The Little Bits of Green That Make the Tree Beautiful

There are many ways to study the world around you: through science, mathematics, literature, anthropology, philosophy etc. Environmental Science is one of those ways–a way to study the earth’s past, its present, its future, and our relation to it. When I originally thought of Environmental Science, I imagined a lot of graphs and statistics depicting

Halloween Rocky Horror Style

“So come up to the lab and see what’s on the slab. I see you shiver with antici-(SAY IT!)-pation.” There is no way to describe a true Rocky Horror Picture Show or to ever forget it. This Halloween, ECLA of Bard’s film professor Matthias Hurst hosted a “Spooktacular” movie night for the students, consisting of
